Just warming up to a couple of ideas. I'm probably going to push it more into cartoony randomness and away from the whole animal-characters thing. The little dude on the bottom is a basic idea for what would be generic henchmen.

Our hero has been seduced into capture by the titular character, who is busy adjusting her makeup as her henchmen ask the hero politely to please stop bothering them. In the background, other henchmen are loading super secret weapons of ultimate destruction into crates.

Wanted to do it in a cartoony, simple sort of style just so it will be a little easier to get it finished and polished. I was thinking about doing it in a black and white, film noir-ish sort of feel. Alternatively, I could do the exact opposite and make it bright and cheerful, as a juxtaposition to the darker subject matter. Thoughts?

quick 3D doodle with some lighting ideas painted on. Just basic staging. I didn't really want it to be all that dynamic of a scene, and most of the focus will be on the woman. She's just a stand-in here, tho. That pose and design will definitely change. I'll probably start modelling some of the stuff for the background tomorrow or tonight. Wanna explore the female character for a while first.

After playing about with various shapes for the main character, I have settled on this. I'll probably post up some of the other variations. Some of them turned out really creepy and awful. I still might goof with her proportions, but I'll just do that in the modelling stage. Basic shape is down.
